The compelling experimental evidences for oscillations of solar, atmospheric and reactor neutrinos imply the existence of 3-neutrino mixing in vacuum. We review the phenomenology of 3-neutrino mixing, and the current data on the 3-neutrino…

We apply the permutation symmetry S_3 to both charged-lepton and neutrino mass matrices, and suggest a useful symmetry-breaking scheme, in which the flavor symmetry is explicitly broken down via S_3 -> Z_3 -> nothing in the charged-lepton…
We study a class of models for neutrino mass matrix in Type-II seesaw with $A_4$ family symmetry. The resulting neutrino mass matrix can be naturally made to respect a $\mu-\tau$ exchange plus CP conjugate symmetry (GLS) with the CP…

An approximate neutrino mixing matrix is formutated by using the standard neutrino mixing matrix as a basis and experimental data of neutrino oscillations as inputs. By using the resulted approximate neutrino mixing matrix to proceed the…

The nonzero and relatively large $\theta_{13}$ from the latest experimental results have a serious implication on the well-known neutrino mixing matrix. One of the well-known mixing matrix is tribimaximal (TBM) neutrino mixing matrix which…
We have shown that non-zero U_{e3} is generated in a see-saw type softly broken A_4 symmetric model through a single parameter perturbation in m_D in a single element. We have explored all possible 9 cases to study the neutrino mixing…
The neutrino mixing angle theta(13) is at the focus of current neutrino research. From a global analysis of the available oscillation data in a 3-neutrino framework, we previously reported [Phys. Rev. Lett. 101, 141801 (2008)] hints in…
Assuming the Majorana nature of massive neutrinos, we generalize the Friedberg-Lee neutrino mass model to include CP violation in the neutrino mass matrix $M^{}_\nu$. We show that a favorable neutrino mixing pattern (with $\theta^{}_{12}…
Neutrino oscillations reveal several small parameters, namely, $\theta_{13}$, the solar mass splitting {\em vis-\`{a}-vis} the atmospheric one, and the deviation of $\theta_{23}$ from maximal mixing. Can these small quantities all be traced…
We review the basic mechanisms of neutrino mass generation and the corresponding structure of the lepton mixing matrix. We summarize the status of three-neutrino oscillation parameters as determined from current observations, using…
Recently, several reactor oscillation experiments have successively measured a nonzero value for the neutrino mixing angle ${\theta_{13}}$, which is greater than 5 standard deviations. Within framework of the $\mu$ from $\nu$ Supersymmetric…
We construct phenomenologically viable models of lepton masses and mixing based on modular $A_4$ invariance broken to residual symmetries $\mathbb{Z}^{T}_3$ or $\mathbb{Z}^{ST}_3$ and $\mathbb{Z}^S_2$ respectively in the charged lepton and…
We construct a model that allows us to determine the three neutrino masses and the mass matrix directly from the experimental mass squared differences delta atm and delta sol, using the assumptions of rational hierarchy (m1/m2 = m2/m3) and…
Suppose the geometrical explaination to the weak CP phase in quark sector is also valid for neutrinos, the mixing and CP violation in neutrino system are discussed. We find a larger $J_{CP}$ than $3\times 10^{-3}$ implys the large-mixing…
Recently, the reactor mixing angle $\theta_{13}$ has been measured precisely by Daya Bay, RENO and T2K experiments with a moderately large value. However, the standard form of neutrino mixing patterns such as bimaximal, tri-bimaximal,…
Using data from atmospheric neutrino mixing, and a simple functional form for mixing angles, the absolute values of three neutrino masses are calculated: $m_3\cong 5.37\times 10^{-2} eV$, $m_2\cong 1.94\times 10^{-2} eV$, $m_1\cong…
Relying upon the usefulness of the \mu-\tau symmetry, we find a new type of neutrino mass texture with a single phase parameter \delta that describes maximal atmospheric neutrino mixing and Dirac CP violation due to the presence of \delta.…
